Texas Republican Pat Fallon will run for reelection for his House seat in 2024, a reversal of his expected plan to retire from Congress.
Fallon’s decision to run for a third term came one day after The Texas Tribune reported that he planned to vacate his 4th District House seat to to run for his old position in the Texas Senate. The Texas state Senate District 30 seat had opened after its incumbent, Republican Drew Springer, announced he would retire.
However, Fallon’s communications director, Peter Vicenzi, confirmed in a text message that Fallon will be running for a third term in the House.
